Air India is putting bats on your plate!

You need not wait to land in Australia for your world cup experience to begin. Air India’s cricket-themed food menu ensures the party begins mid-air.

Specially designed menu cards will feature lunch, dinner and dessert options including dishes such as Raina’s Cheesy Pull Shot (a paneer dish served with pilaf jaffrani), Sachin’s Sweet Drive (ras malai) and Dhoni’s Swashbuckling Super Sixer (a chicken dish served with onion pilaf). There’s also Captain Smith’s Catch of the Season, which is a bit of a misnomer—Michael Clarke and not Steve Smith is Australia’s captain for the ICC Cricket World Cup. Business Class flyers can choose between South African cricketer JP Duminy’s favourite—an hors d’oeuvre made with prawn kolivada and chicken harayali tikka, served with creamy cheese and vegetables, or Chris Gayle’s Lamb Goulash with potato wedges, carrots and minted green peas.

Passengers flying business will also be offered cricket-themed nightwear! Perfect way to travel to the home of pyjama cricket.
